Cut out four 30cm squares of baking parchment. Arrange ¼ of the chopped Asian greens in the middle of each paper square. Top with cod fillets and sprinkle over the orange zest, juice, basil, garlic, wine, oil, carrot, fennel and season. Fold over the paper to form a parcel, leaving a little air inside so the ingredients can steam, and twist the edges to seal. |

Reset time and fill water tank after 30 minutes. Open one of the parcels to check that the fish is cooked, it should flake easily. |
